Gulp!
Su Bai nervously swallowed.
This Storage Pouch was extremely exquisite in appearance.
It was clearly not an ordinary item.
Its internal space was probably very large.
Su Bai glanced again at the Jade Slip quietly resting there.
As her Divine Sense touched it slightly, a piece of information entered her mind.
This Storage Pouch and Jade Slip were indeed left by Lian Youzhi.
"Mountains are high and waters are distant; it's rare to meet someone I like. Unfortunately, the Ten Thousand Demons Hall has a rule with this place: not to interfere here for ten thousand years. This Incarnation of mine is only here to avenge the Joyful Union Sect, and then I will no longer appear."
"Meeting is fate. I only hope your Cultivation progresses in the future, and there will be a day we meet again."
"I've left you some gifts. The world is vast, do not be content with just one corner."
"..."
After this message, there was a map.
The map showed some Secret Realms that the Ten Thousand Demons Hall had left behind.
Lian Youzhi gave Su Bai this map, hoping that when Su Bai's Cultivation was sufficient in the future, she would seek Opportunity in the Secret Realms.
It was meant to help her progress more smoothly on her Cultivation path.
And the contents of that Storage Pouch were from the Sect's Core Formation Elder and Zhang Hai, who were previously guarding this place!
Lian Youzhi had blown up six Jiedan and Nascent Soul Cultivators!
After all, it was a battle against opponents of the same rank, and she couldn't control her strength.
Many items from the Core Formation Elder and Zhang Hai's Storage Pouches were lost.
Lian Youzhi only managed to get some Artifact Refining Materials; as for other Spirit Medicine and Cultivation Technique, they were completely destroyed in the battle due to their fragile nature.
Su Bai's breathing was heavy.
Her hands were trembling.
She wanted to just throw away this hot potato.
But the Artifact Refining Materials left by a Core Formation Cultivator and a Nascent Soul Cultivator!
Made Su Bai unwilling to let go!
Su Bai had just glanced at the Storage Pouch; there weren't many things, but they were all third-tier Materials!
"Copper Essence, Silver Essence, Millennium Ironwood..."
All of them were third-tier treasures!
By piecing them together, one could completely refine a Magic Treasure!
Lian Youzhi's body was an Incarnation; she couldn't take these things, nor did she care for them.
They were merely Materials for a single Magic Treasure.
But for Su Bai, this was extremely precious!
Both Copper Essence and Silver Essence required Jiedan mana to refine.
Placed externally, these were treasures worth three to four thousand Mid-Grade Spirit Stones.
And that Millennium Ironwood...
Su Bai could even continue to Cultivate it using Creation Essence!
These weren't even the most precious things.
The most precious treasure Lian Youzhi left behind was the Secret Realm of the Ten Thousand Demons Hall!
The Ten Thousand Demons Hall had already left; their ruins must have been thoroughly searched long ago.
But Secret Realms are different. If one doesn't know how to enter, a Secret Realm can only slowly appear when the Formation Restrictions outside are gradually worn away.
A Secret Realm that hasn't been explored for thousands of years.
The Medicinal Pill, Spiritual Artifact, and other items inside would certainly be unusable.
But the remaining Cultivation Technique and Spirit Medicine would definitely still be there!
After putting everything away,
Su Bai felt that the Secret Realm should be approached with caution.
After all, the name of the Ten Thousand Demons Hall was somewhat intimidating; who knew if there were any dangerous things within that Secret Realm?
She wouldn't easily take risks.
The resources she currently possessed were already enough to stably Cultivate to the Peak of Foundation Establishment.
As for Core Formation, that depended on fate.
If there were any Medicinal Pill or Spirit Medicine that helped with a Core Formation Breakthrough, then Su Bai would consider trying.
For example, Su Bai couldn't go to the Six Major Sects now.
Then this Ten Thousand Demons Hall Secret Realm was also a place worth exploring.
After putting everything away,
Su Bai looked at the distant sky.
She went back and called Xu Changge and the others out.
After Xu Changge came out, she looked at the scene outside.
Ruined walls.
The Danfu Pavilion was barely intact.
Only its walls were full of cracks, and its roof had been blown off.
This was merely caused by the aftershocks from the Golden Core Cultivators' battle in the sky.
As for the Nascent Soul Cultivators who made their moves later, they flew towards the sea.
Even if they caused a tsunami, Xingluo Market was some distance from the sea, so it wouldn't spread here.
"Sigh, I wonder how many people died."
Xu Changge sighed.
However, looking at Changge Street, most of the buildings were preserved.
Cultivators here, as long as they hid indoors, would at most suffer minor injuries.
Looking at the Seven Stars Mountain, which had already disappeared in the distance,
Xu Changge turned to look at Su Bai.
"Su Bai, can you tell me what you know now?"
At this moment, Xu Changge's expression was unusually serious.
The Xu Family suffered heavy losses this time.
There were Xu Family members on Xingluo Mountain and also on Changge Street.
But Xu Changge couldn't save them.
The market established by the Six Major Sects was also destroyed, years of planning ruined in an instant.
It would take more than ten years to rebuild.
But the Six Major Sects were attacked on their home ground.
Their prestige was gone; Xingluo Market was destined to decline before it could even experience its glory.
Xu Changge only wanted to know the truth at this moment.
Seeing Xu Changge's appearance, Su Bai sighed.
"What good is knowing the truth? You and I can't change anything, nor can we do anything."
Look at the scene outside now.
The third-tier Protector Formation that Xingluo Market relied on didn't even get to function before it was directly broken.
The six Core Formation Elders guarding this place were also suppressed.
In the end, even a Nascent Soul mighty figure appeared.
How could she and Xu Changge participate in matters of such a level?
"Don't say anything foolish about wanting revenge later."
Su Bai was also afraid that Xu Changge might act impulsively.
If a Heart Demon were to arise from this, not to mention finding the Ten Thousand Demons Hall later, her Cultivation might even stagnate.
Who knew that upon hearing Su Bai's words, Xu Changge chuckled instead.
"Heh heh, you don't need to worry about that, little sister. I'm quite self-aware. I just want to understand why you called me down from Xingluo Mountain back then, and why you were so certain that Changge Street was safe."
"As for revenge, heh heh, you can rest assured about that."
"This is a matter between the Six Sects and the Ten Thousand Demons Hall; I won't attribute it to individuals."
"I only blame my own insufficient Cultivation, unable to lend a hand when my Family was in trouble."
"Moreover, although my Xu Family lost some people this time, our Foundation was not damaged. We can recover in less than ten years."
"Little sister, you don't need to worry about me doing anything foolish."
Xu Changge smiled.
Su Bai was truly overthinking it.
The Xu Family's losses were not great.
As the Xu Family Old Ancestor, during the Family's development stage, she wouldn't just focus on a small loss.
As long as the Xu Family's Foundation remained, there was a possibility of rising again.
Xu Changge thought three steps ahead.
Her choices affected not only herself but also her clansmen.
So Su Bai didn't need to worry about her being impulsive.
However, Su Bai's concern for her also warmed Xu Changge's heart.
"Really, you care so much about your older sister, it makes me fall deeper and deeper."
Xu Changge couldn't help but directly hug Su Bai.
She rubbed her face against Su Bai's forehead.
"Alright, alright, don't get so close."
"Now that the matter is over, I'll tell you what I know."
"This matter, to be honest, was an accident. I can only say I was lucky, but also unlucky."
